- Work with field technicians and electricians during equipment installation, wiring verification, I/O checkout, startup, and commissioning.
- Review electrical drawings, control schematics, wiring diagrams, P&IDs, equipment layouts, and technical specifications.
- Perform point-to-point and I/O verification between field devices and PLC control systems.
- Support integration and communication using industrial protocols such as Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, OPC, BACnet, or similar protocols.
- Assist with configuration and troubleshooting of variable frequency drives, motor controls, sensors, transmitters, valves, pumps, and other automated equipment.
- Maintain PLC programs, HMI applications, control-system backups, revision histories, and technical documentation.
- Document programming changes, troubleshooting activities, commissioning results, system configurations, and testing records.
- Coordinate with project managers, engineers, vendors, contractors, and customers regarding controls-related requirements and technical issues.
- Support preventive maintenance, system upgrades, control modifications, and continuous improvement activities.
- Identify potential control-system reliability, safety, or operational risks and recommend corrective actions.
- Respond to field issues and provide technical support during system startup and production operations.
- Follow company safety requirements and site-specific procedures when working around chemical and process equipment.
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Automation Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related technical field; equivalent relevant experience may be considered.
- Experience programming and troubleshooting industrial PLC systems.
- Experience working with HMI or SCADA applications.
- Understanding of industrial control systems, electrical controls, instrumentation, and automation.
